Super Bowl XLVII Recap

That 'Tebow Jerky' has the haters jaws sore as hell! The harder they chew, the more painful it gets! haha

Walt, did you even watch the Broncos game? Most of Tebow's passing yardage came on throw when the DB wasn't even in the frame. What happened to you, got that Tebow-fever?

pats won 31-24

@Walter: Great call Walter. I stayed away from this game, though I thought Seattle with the 3 points would probably carry the day for Seattle. Again man, way to go with a 4 unit play on the Seahawks!!!!

THANK YOU SAINTS! they saved my ass from a beatdown this week.

You forgot to acknowledge Von Miller in Denver's defensive stops. Contrary to your belief that Miller wouldn't adjust well to the 4-3, he's been exceptional. And your explanation didn't make sense in the first place since playing defensive end would be easier for an outside linebacker. Womp.

Tebow did not win the game. P52 is right. n Willis McGahee is still in the league for a reason. He is more reliable and can run over more tacklers than Knowshon Moreno. Tebow doesn't turn the ball over because Jon Fox and Mr. Elway don't let him throw to anyone else but Rosario and Decker, who prevent some terrible throws from being picked off. When the Broncos face an effective offense like they did in my dumbass Lions, they get crushed. Cliff Avril is right, Tim Tebow is not a NFL quarterback.

@nick: if your "house" offers ten point teasers (3 teams), it might be worth a look. I can tell you that 10 point teasers in NFL, can and a lot of times do make a difference. JMO. Good luck to you.

Front-door cover is a team that is favored and winning their game (but not enough to cover) and then kicks a last-second field goal to push their lead above the spread and cover.

Back-door cover is a team that is an underdog and losing their game (by more than the spread) but then gets a last-minute score to bump themselves up and cover the spread.

The reason these are frustrating is because it can lose your bet, but rarely had any purpose or advantage in the game itself. Usually the team is either winning or losing by so much that the score is irrelevant, except to screw some people's bets. But it goes both ways and can help or hurt you.

Dear Tebow-thumpers:
When your team scores 13 points in regulation against a defense that really is nothing special, then your running back makes the big play in overtime to set up the winning field goal after the other team hands you great field position... YOUR QB DID NOT WIN THE GAME.
The Broncos have scored more than 18 points once in six games with Tebow at the helm. Right now he's basically a bad pitcher who's getting great run support. yeah, they're winning, but is consistently scoring 17 points something you're really something to be happy about?

i love the tebow haters. keep hating. i keep riding it to the bank week afte week. i took Denver ML yest.. and ill do it again next week. san diego is terrible, ive been saying it all year.

and tebow just finds a way. thats all that matters.

still new to the betting aspect of football- what's a front door cover and a backdoor cover?

Greg, we don't need a play by play for every drive in the game. Please. Walt and Charlie summarize the games in 1/3 the amount of words that you do. We could watch a replay of the game in the same amount of time it takes to read your lengthy recaps.

Just highlights, stats for relevant fantasy players, and a simple analysis. You're over thinking and over doing, I'm sure Walt doesn't even want to proofread fifteen paragraphs per game.

Thanks.

He was probably referring to the editors note.
